Hey guys.

Just want to make sure. My bike's not ready for season yet. Just ½ an hour ago i drained the oil, including the oil in the oilfilter housing.

While she stod there bleeding... BANG, the bike touched the ground - hard, it tipped and i inspected the damage while trying to clean up 3 litres of oil floating on the ground.. ;)

I noticed the clutch lever had broke, and i tried pulling it - no resistance at all. I'm a bit nervous that this ain't normal, and has been caused by the drop. Still, the fluid in the reservoir rises when the lever is pulled. I checked for leaks, but it was dark so i couldn't get a full vision of the clutch system, feeling with my hands i couldn't find any leaks as it seems.

Or is this normal when the engine has been drained for oil?
 
Hey bob

Had some great weather here in Denmark today - and a day off ;)
So i went through the clutch lever system, hoses and the slave system... And nothing to report - While at it i changed the gasket in the slave piston.
Will be buying some DOT 5.1 tomo an bleed her. So i quess it'll be setled then

Thanks for the reply though..

BTW... gosh those levers are expensive:yes
